How many times have you misplaced* your keys in your purse? Go ahead, I’ll wait while you recount the number of times.
I have done it myself (it happens to all of us) even though my purse is organized. But a little piggy saved me – here’s how.
I was given an orange piggy key fob. I don’t collect pigs and I don’t like to have a lot of extraneous stuff on my key ring. But I thought, “wait a minute!” What a great tool to have to help me find my keys. The vibrant color makes it perfect to see when I’m searching the depths of my purse. The unusual shape is great to get ahold of when I’m rooting around the pockets. And if by a slim chance my keys are grouped with other sets, I instantly know which set belongs to me.
So, get yourself a silly, brightly colored, odd shaped key fob. This tip won’t help you from misplacing* your keys, but it will make it easier to find them when you do!
*Note I wrote “misplaced.” I don’t believe we ever “lose” anything that we eventually find. And it sounds a lot better to ourselves to admit we’ve “misplaced” an item instead of “losing” it.

I am pretty good at finding my keys because for years I have made a point of always putting them in the same place as soon as I walk in the door. This started in college when I had a hook on a magnet that i put on the door of my mini-fridge. As soon as I walked into my dorm room, the keys went on that hook. Now I have a hook on a mirror hanging by the front door. As soon as I walk in the door, the keys go on that hook (and my wallet and cell phone go on the little shelf right above the hook, so I don't lost them, either). This works great. If I don't put my keys on that hook, I am almost guaranteed to lose track of them.
